Dear Sirs:

The undersigned, Eight Capital, a partnership formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario, as lead agent (the "Lead Agent"), together with Canaccord Genuity Corp., a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario (collectively, the "Agents") understand that PsyBio Therapeutics Financing Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (the "Corporation") proposes to issue and sell 30,050,391 subscription receipts of the Corporation (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of $0.35 per Subscription Receipt (the "Subscription Price"), for aggregate gross proceeds of $10,517,636.80 (the "Offering") pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Agents hereby agree to act, and upon acceptance hereof, the Corporation hereby appoints the Agents, as the Corporation's exclusive agents to offer for sale on a "best efforts" agency basis, without underwriter liability, the Subscription Receipts and to arrange for purchasers for the Subscription Receipts in the Selling Jurisdictions (as defined herein) on a private placement basis pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus requirements of Securities Laws (as defined herein). The Corporation agrees that the Agents are under no obligation to purchase any of the Subscription Receipts but may purchase Subscription Receipts if desired. Offers and sales of Subscription Receipts will be made in the United States and to U.S. Persons (as defined herein) pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the U.S. Securities (as defined herein) and similar exemptions under applicable state securities laws to (i) Institutional Accredited Investors (as defined herein), and (ii) Qualified Institutional Buyers (as defined herein) that are also Institutional Accredited Investors, through a U.S. Affiliate (as defined herein) pursuant to and in accordance with United States securities laws and the provisions of Schedule "B" to this Agreement. The Agents and the Corporation acknowledge that Schedule "B" forms part of this Agreement.

In consideration of the services to be rendered by the Agents in connection with the Offering, the Corporation shall pay to the Agents the Commission (as defined herein) and the Finance Fee (as defined herein) and issue and deliver to the Agents the Compensation Warrants (as defined herein) in such amounts and with such terms as set out in Section 16 hereof.

The Corporation agrees that the Agents will be permitted to appoint, at their sole expense, other registered dealers or other dealers duly qualified in their respective jurisdictions, as their agents to assist in the Offering in the Selling Jurisdictions and that the Agents may determine the remuneration payable by the Agents to such other dealers appointed by them, provided that such remuneration shall not in any way increase the aggregate Commission or Finance Fee payable, or the Compensation Warrants or Finance Warrants issuable, to the Agents by the Corporation under this Agreement.

The Agents acknowledge that the Corporation intends to complete the Concurrent Placement (as defined herein) contemporaneously with the closing of the Offering.

Subscription Receipts

The Subscription Receipts will be duly and validly created pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement (as defined herein). Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions (as defined herein) on or before the Escrow Release Deadline (as defined herein), and without payment of additional consideration or further action, one Underlying Share (as defined herein), subject to adjustment as more particularly described in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The gross proceeds from the Offering, less (i) 50% of the Commission, (ii) 50% of the Finance Fee, and (iii) the Agents' Expenses (as defined herein), will be deposited at the Closing Time (as defined herein) in escrow with the Subscription Receipt Agent, and held in an interest-bearing account pending satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions, in accordance with the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement. Provided that the Escrow Release Conditions are satisfied or waived prior to the Escrow Release Deadline (as defined herein), the Subscription Receipt Agent will release the Escrowed Funds (as defined herein) to the Corporation (less 50% of the Commission, 50% of the Finance Fee and the pro rata portion of interest earned thereon, which amounts shall be released to the Agents), and each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to be issued one Underlying Share without payment of additional consideration and without any further action by the holder thereof.

If: (i) the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied prior to the Escrow Release Deadline; or (ii) prior to the Escrow Release Deadline the Corporation advises the Agents or announces to the public that it does not intend to satisfy any of the Escrow Release Conditions (each such event being a "Termination Event"), the Subscription Receipt Agent will return to each holder of Subscription Receipts, as soon as practicable following the Termination Event an amount (the "Refund Amount") equal to (A) the Aggregate Subscription Price (as defined herein) of the Subscription Receipts held by such holder, and (B) their pro rata portion of interest earned on the Escrowed Proceeds (less applicable withholding tax, if any) and the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled without any further action on the part of the holders. The Corporation shall be responsible and liable to the holders of Subscription Receipts for any shortfall between the Refund Amount and the Escrowed Funds.

The description of the Subscription Receipts herein is a summary only and is subject to the specific attributes and detailed provisions of the Subscription Receipts set forth in the Subscription Receipt Agreement. In the case of any inconsistency between the description of the Subscription Receipts in this Agreement and their terms and conditions as set forth in the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement will govern.

This indemnity shall not be available to an Indemnified Party in respect of Losses incurred where a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable determines that such Losses resulted solely from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party.

(b) If for any reason (other than a determination as to any of the events referred to immediately above) this indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless in respect of any Claim, the Indemnitor shall contribute to the Losses paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnitor on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party as well as any relevant equitable considerations; provided that the Indemnitor shall in any event contribute to the Losses paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim, the amount (if any) equal to (i) such amount paid or payable, minus (ii) the amount of the Commission received by the Indemnified Party, if any, pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) The Indemnitor agrees that in case any legal proceeding shall be brought against, or an investigation is commenced in respect of, the Indemnitor and/or an Indemnified Party and an Indemnified Party or its personnel are required to testify in connection therewith or shall be required to respond to procedures designed to discover information regarding, in connection with or by reason of the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by the Indemnified Parties hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in connection therewith, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel as well as the reasonable costs (including an amount to reimburse the Indemnified Party for time spent by its personnel in connection therewith at their normal per diem rates together with such disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the personnel of the Indemnified Party in connection therewith) shall be paid by the Indemnitor as they occur.

(d) The Agents will notify the Indemnitor promptly in writing after receiving notice of any Claim against the Agents or any other Indemnified Party or receipt of notice of the commencement of any investigation, which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from the Indemnitor hereunder, stating the particulars thereof, will provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnitor and, unless the Indemnitor assumes the defence thereof, will keep the Indemnitor advised of the progress thereof and will discuss all significant actions proposed. The omission to so notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability which the Indemnitor may have to an Indemnified Party except only to the extent that any such delay in giving or failure to give notice as herein required materially prejudices the defence of such Claim or results in any material increase in the liability under this indemnity which the Indemnitor would otherwise have incurred had the Agents not so delayed in giving, or failed to give, the notice required hereunder.

(e) The Indemnitor shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in and, to the extent it may wish to do so, assume the defence of any Claim, provided such defence is conducted by counsel of good standing acceptable to the Agents. Upon the Indemnitor notifying the Agents in writing of its election to assume the defence and retaining counsel, the Indemnitor shall not be liable to an Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by it in connection with such defence. If such defence is not assumed by the Indemnitor, the Indemnified Parties, throughout the course thereof, shall provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnitor, shall keep the Indemnitor advised of the progress thereof and shall discuss with the Indemnitor all significant actions proposed. If such defence is assumed by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor throughout the course thereof will provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Agents, will keep the Agents advised of the progress thereof and will discuss with the Agents all significant actions proposed.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, any Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the Indemnitor's expense, to separately retain counsel of such Indemnified Party's choice, in respect of the defence of any Claim if: (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized by the Indemnitor; (ii) the Indemnitor has not assumed the defence and employed counsel therefor promptly after receiving notice of the Claim; or (iii) counsel retained by the Indemnitor or the Indemnified Party has advised the Indemnified Party that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate for any reason, including for the reason that there may be legal defences available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor or that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party or the subject matter of the Claim may not fall within the indemnity set forth herein (in any of which events the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume or direct the defence on such Indemnified Party's behalf), provided that the Indemnitor shall not be responsible for the fees or expenses of more than one legal firm in any single jurisdiction for all of the Indemnified Parties.

(g) No admission of liability and no settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment shall be made by the Indemnitor without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties affected and unless the Indemnitor has acknowledged in writing that the Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified in respect of such Claim and such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from any liabilities arising out of such Claim without any admission of negligence, misconduct, liability or responsibility by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

(h) The Indemnitor agrees to waive any right it may have of first requiring an Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy or security or claim payment from any other Person before claiming under this indemnity. The Indemnitor also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Indemnitor or any Person asserting Claims on behalf of or in right of the Indemnitor for or in connection with the Offering except to the extent of the amount of any Losses suffered by the Indemnitor are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable to have resulted solely from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party.

(i) The Indemnitor hereby acknowledges that the Agents are acting as trustees for each of the other Indemnified Parties of the Indemnitor's covenants under this indemnity and the Agents agree to accept such trust and to hold and enforce such covenants on behalf of such Persons.

(j) The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Indemnitor shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnitor may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to the Indemnified Parties who are not signatories hereto and shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of any successors, permitted assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Parties.

(k) The rights accorded to the Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be in addition to any rights an Indemnified Party may have at common law or otherwise

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the indemnity and contribution obligations of the Corporation, OpCo and ShellCo set forth in this Section 14 shall be considered joint obligations of the Corporation, OpCo and ShellCo from and after the time of closing the Transaction; provided further and for the avoidance of doubt that the indemnity and contribution obligations of ShellCo contained herein shall only apply in the event the Transaction is completed.
